Job description

We are recruiting Senior and Principal Control Systems Engineers to support an early-stage nuclear programme. The project is currently in the design phase, with a Siemens-based hardware and software platform being developed. The focus will be on functional controls, functional safety and detailed control system design, rather than software implementation.

Requirements

  • Control Systems / Automation Engineering background
  • Functional control and functional safety experience
  • Control system design, drawings, graphics and technical documentation
  • Experience within nuclear, power, process, defence or another highly regulated industry
  • Siemens experience advantageous
  • Principal Engineers should have experience providing technical leadership and design assurance

Excellent opportunity to join a major nuclear programme at an early stage and help shape the control system design.
